F10 / F11 (2011 - 2016) The sixth generation of the BMW 5 Series Sedan (F10) was produced from 2011 - 2016 with LCI updates arriving in 2014. In the US BMW offered a hatchback 5 Series Gran Truismo (F07) and the rest of the world also go a Station Wagon/Touring version F11.

Do you also have the Google app installed on your phone? Have you run it and accepted any licensing? I would next remove the BMW app and re-install. I assume you are able to "send to car" from a desktop computer? Updated phone OS?

I had the UK based app for eight mo, I was able to send maps to the car, worked flawless on my 2011 B7 and 2012 535i, until I installed the most recent version, now I can only send to the 535, I get and error MSG on the b7. Any suggestions?

When I updated my UK version over the weekend, everything stopped working except the "car location". I deleted it and installed the US version, and all is working fine.

This is really puzzling, I just reinstalled the original BMW app version 1.0.3/1.9.1, now I'm able to send the maps to both B7 and the 535. So does this mean my 06/2010 built B7 is not compatible with the new version of BMW apps??
